'Nothing short of spectacular' 💪
Yahoo! Singapore contributor Cheryl Tay crosses the finish line at the 2022 BMW Berlin Marathon.
This makes access to these races tough and exclusive, hence I was beyond thrilled to be able to toe the start line of the 2022 BMW Berlin Marathon. This was part of my mission for the year, to do better for myself and also for the environment. I had strangers calling out my name , there were musicians and bands along the way, people had posters and signs with messages of encouragement – it was a bit of a sensory overload but the cheers definitely helped me to push on.My first marathon was the Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon back in 2019 before the COVID-19 pandemic, and I have not run anything close to this distance since.
I was enjoying the run and going at an average pace of 5:30 minutes per kilometre. I felt good so I just ran along, letting myself get caught up in the atmosphere and soaking up the cheers from the supporters lined along the route.Gutting it out after hitting the wall When I saw the Brandenburg Gate within reach, I knew the finish line was near and I felt this wave of emotions wash over me. I couldn’t stop the tears as I ran through to the end. Joy, relief, gratitude, a little disappointment and fatigue – I could feel so many emotions coursing through my veins.
